HOW IT WORKS

Figure A
This Distiller produces purifi ed water by using the oldest, most effective
method of water treatment—steam distillation. When the Distiller is
operating, the water temperature rises to 212°F (100°C), killing bacteria,
cysts, and viruses that may be present. As the boiling water (1) converts to
steam (2), it rises and leaves behind dead microbes, dissolved solids, salts,
heavy metals, and other substances. Low boiling light gases that may be
present are discharged through the gaseous vent (3). Steam is then cooled
in the stainless steel condenser (4), turning it into high quality water.
Distilled water percolates through a fi nal polishing coconut shell carbon
fi lter (5) to enhance quality by adsorption of VOCs (volatile organic
compounds), and is then collected in the GE Lexan
collector/dispenser bottle (6).
